Public bug reported: Version: 1.1
I have a German system, and when I use German umlauts in gnome do using OpenSearch plugins, the umlauts get incorrectly encoded. This happens not only for umlauts, also for other Unicode chars. Searching for "Täst" using OpenSearch + Google gives me this URL: http://www.google.com/search?q=T%u00f6st&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t As you can see, the search results don't contain the word "Täst". Same for "日本語" ("Japanese Language" in Japanese). If you select the text and search for the selection using gnome do/OpenSearch, it will result in the URL http://www.google.com/search?q=%u65e5%u672c%u8a9e&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t , which is not the right search term. The encoding happens in OpenSearchItem.cs, but I haven't been able to find out what exactly is wrong with the encoding. I guess the OpenSearch plugin should just *not* encode special chars. The question is if that would break anything else? Maybe that only works for UTF-8 systems (which is the majority in Linux anyway?). ** Affects: do-plugins Importance: Undecided Status: New -- OpenSearch encodes special chars incorrectly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/279292 You received this bug notification because you are a member of GNOME Do Plugins Team, which is subscribed to GNOME Do Plugins. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~do-plugins Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~do-plugins More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
